DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The technical feature of the present invention is that a predetermined amount of graphite is added to a rubber to which a predetermined amount of red phosphorus as a flame retardant and a metal hydroxide is added.
Since graphite acts to suppress combustion, dripping can be prevented and flame retardancy is improved without adding a large amount of flame retardant. Further, in the flame-retardant rubber composition according to the present invention, even if the conductivity of the charging roll used in the electrophotographic process is required, since the graphite has conductivity, conventionally, Since the amount of easily combustible carbon black added for the purpose of addition can be suppressed or not added, there is no concern that the flame retardancy will decrease due to the combustion of carbon black. That is, in the flame-retardant rubber composition according to the present invention, graphite has conductivity, and since it can impart flame retardancy to the composition, it can be suitably used as a conductive roll such as a charging roll. is there. The use of the flame-retardant rubber composition according to the present invention is not limited to the conductive roll, and it is needless to say that the flame-retardant rubber composition can be generally used for members such as a transfer belt and a conveyor belt that require flame retardancy.
